for example V Rising.

preferably playable offline

Thanks :)

Looking for a chill co-op game recommendation

Hey everyone! My friends and I are looking for a new game to play together. We’ve spent years playing competitive games like CS and Overwatch, but we’re kind of burned out on the whole "always competing" thing. Lately, we’ve been really into The Hunter: Call of the Wild and Way of the Hunter, and we love the relaxing co-op experience they offer.

What we really enjoy about these games is that you can play together no matter how much time each person puts in—there’s no leveling system where someone gets too far ahead. Whether someone has an hour to play or ten, we can just hop in and have a great time without any pressure. And most importantly, there’s no competition between us, just pure good vibes.

So, does anyone have recommendations for similar games where we can just chill and enjoy playing together? Preferably something co-op, open-ended, and stress-free. Would love to hear your suggestions!

So im searching for a game like Bokura no Kazoku since i dont know japanese and cant play it, but also cant seem to find an english patch for it. Would appreciate the suggestions!

it would be better if it was a survival game

These are my main two gaming devices - have loved games in the past like Night in the Woods, Spiritfarer, A Short Hike - essentially games that have a good art style, emotional/good story, platforming with some small tasks/puzzles/games quests to do but nothing too complicated and no battles/fighting (also please no farming/building sims)

Hey guys! Do you know of any life simulation games kinda like Bitlife but you're really playing a character? You can make choices and stuff and the outcome depends on those choices. Stuff like that.

Something like borderlands where I can get creative with my skills and the way I play but doesnt have to be FPS, im open to any genre with good gameplay where I can customize my character and im not waiting hours in dialog.

I've been wanting to get lost in hours of play. I also Play on Xbox. Something like Ark Survival.

Have been playing Doki Doki Literature Club and I feel like this is always how people “recommend” it. Looking for something similar that makes people avoid saying what the game is about for fear of spoiling it or that give you the sense that the game isn’t exactly what it looks like on the outside. Doesn’t have to be any specific genre. I play on PS5. Obviously please don’t spoil games in the comments. Looking forward to seeing what people recommend!

Hello. I recently bought Frostpunk on sale and really liked it as someone who loves city builders. But Frostpunk is very hard not only because of the difficulty, but the dark setting that weighs down on you. It seems that this game is meant not to be enjoyed, but endured.

I really like the decision-making aspect of Frostpunk. It's something I haven't seen yet in games of this genre. I'm a fan of the SimCity series for it's simplicity and bright atmosphere, but it lacks this choices and consequences mechanic. I also like that the choices give you a story context to what you are doing.

Are there any City-Building games with choices like Frostpunk (perhaps even survival elements), but not so dark, so it could be enjoyed without being stressful?

Thank you in advance for your recommendations!

Looking for games that have at least 3 out of 4 of these qualities.

Bonus points for 4 out of 4 suggestions.

Examples: Titanfall 2, Jak 3.

Platform: PC (can run anything), all PlayStation consoles, all Xbox consoles, all Nintendo consoles.

Time period: Any.

Preferred genres: Action adventure, first person shooters, third person shooters, melee combat, soulslikes, platformers.

I’m sick of playing an RPG or an adventure game and in the end the obvious romantic storyline ends vaguely or without anyone ever making their feelings known. I want something with a real romantic story like Kingdom Hearts or Tales of the Abyss. Any genre is fine but I would prefer if the gameplay is also fun and the story is god.

I used to play a lot of video games, but now I got a job and I can only play on weekends.

I thought about playing hades again since it doesn’t require me to play constantly every day, but something just doesn’t attract me and makes me want to play it

Some of my favorite games: AC Unity, Cyberpunk 2077, Spider-Man 1, Rocket League

I loved Ghost Recon Wildlands and Breakpoint and in general I love the tactical shooter genre and I'm looking for a new game/franchise to play.

It’s been a while since I’ve played a good game, last one was probably god of war ragnorok, I really want to find a fun game to enjoy, I’ve tried Elden ring but I got to a point where it was to difficult, I tried to play RDR2 but the story felt to slow. I want to play something very fun and not expensive.

I have middle ranged android phone and it really frustrated with fps drop in some games. They're really not optimised well compared to iOS. Every games are iOS first so they're butterly smooth as hell while android are optimised randomly. Why is that? I have a friend and every games he plays never have any fps drop not the case with heating up.

Hey, so i've been in the mood to play a new 3rd person shooter with some sort of grind.

I've spent 10+ years on both warframe and destiny 1/2(still playing warframe). Spent a bit of time on Division 1 and more time on Division 2. Played a fair amount on Outriders (which i was banking on being a rival to destiny and division, but that kinda flopped hard) even after getting 2 characters deleted in the launches server snd game issues.

i've been playing and enjoying The First Descendant, but the power creep is starting to bug me a bit, but still an enjoyable game.

Ideally, im looking for something that has a fairly popular and healthy playerbase (even if its only like 20k players a day), with a sort of power fantasy that Outriders, Destiny, and Warframe kinda have going on, with a decent grind.

I dont mind stuff where i have to build or wait to get stuff, or even if its just kinda annoying like destiny's grind.

I also wouldn't mind an MMO, but honestly on PS5, theres not a lot of great choices imo. Neverwinter, New World, Phantasy star online 2, Throne and Liberty (which i enjoy, just not the pvp aspect), Black Desert, ESO (which while its fun, just kinda doesnt hit the right buttons as some others do), FFXIV (which i am addicted to and absolutely love and adore).

I just want/miss playing games where I enjoyed the game, and had a hell of a grind.

But most games like that i've either played, dont like, are caught up with, or the game is dead or suffering from some sort of self inflicted issues.

I know im limited due to being on PlayStation, but im hoping theres something i've missed. Maybe a game i forgot about, or something.

There was a game I would always play on my dad's laptop when he would take me to his work, and I am DESPERATE to find it. The details are all super fuzzy, as I was probably only about 7 (so 2012, 2013 era, though I think due to how pixelated the game was it may be from the late 90s early 2000s). Here's what I've got:

The home screen of the game was a camping/outdoor scene with a LARGE WHITE MOON. i believe there was a girl and her cat. when you clicked on the stars, or the button options on the left side of the screen (they might have been orange??) it would take you to different parts of the game. I believe it was educational with small puzzles or things to do, but I don't think there was an overall story. there was a musical ton that would play when you left the game.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, I AM DESPERATE.

I miss the era of Action-Adventure games that aren’t quite like straightforward modern Open World games.

Specifically Action-Adventure games with treacherous levels or dungeons that aren’t just like Skyrim where you walk through it killing every enemy you see.

As in you need to traverse obstacles to progress, solve puzzles, etc.

What are some of the most influential or in your opinion best games of all time? I’ll start with Dark Souls 1.

So, I have scoured the forums far and wide searching for something that matches the following criteria with absolute zero to show for it.

I downloaded Demon Souls on PS Plus and I loved almost everything about it. The sword and armor, the RPG gear leveling, the dark mysterious world and the dedicated almost laborious attacks. I also loved that it was linear as I’ve currently tired myself out on open world games.

However. The difficulty and banner checkpoints that cause you to lose massive progression are too much for me. It genuinely upsets me that there aren’t options for a more accessible experience in these games. You either have to have the time and willpower to spend 200hrs fighting a single boss or you’re SOL.

Are there any games that have those elements above that I truly loved without at least the caveat where if you die you have to go to the beginning of the level. Or something you can change the difficulty on?

I know the point of a souls game is to be challenging, but not everyone wants that. If anyone has any recommendations PLEASE let me know.

Hi, im looking for a game thats its for the xbox 360, The game is inspired by modern warfare (for its time) and looked a lot like battlefield, you could ride in planes that took off upwards like a helicopter, it had tanks and cars, there were 2 teams and you could play capture the area and various more modalities, each team had a different vehicle model, pls HELP

I’ve taken a hiatus from huge open world games since totk and I’m thinking I may be ready to get back into one. That being said I saw the first mass effect isn’t a super long commitment and I’ve always been curious about the renown this series has. Not necessarily looking to play all 3 in a row.

Last string of games finished were FF7rebirth, control, prey, aw2, SH2r, ff16, ff4, crow country

I’ll explain - a lot of games in this genre seem to rely on stressing me or triggering my anxiety in order be fun.

It’s not inherently a bad thing - I enjoy plenty of games like that (I’ll list examples below). But at times I need something more relaxing that isn't boring.

What are some examples of those that stress me out?

• Difficulty - Your Soulslikes, your old school turn-based JPRGs, I don't wanna go into a gaming session stressing over whether I can beat the next boss or I'm going to get stuck and scratching my head for a strategy.
• Horror - basically any horror games, tbh. Too much anxiety - like Resident Evil.
• Too much player choice with lasting consequences - Weird pick, but your CRPGs like Divinity Original Sin 2 and Baldur's Gate 3 can be overwhelming and have me stressing over choices that can majorly affect the entire playthrough
• Over-reliance on stealth and puzzles - some in the game is okay, but when the entire game revolves around it, it gets tiresome
• Multiplayer PvP - I don't think I need to explain this one

Problem with games that can pass the above criteria is that they often become incredibly boring. Example - A lot of action RPGs (such as Soulslikes), when easy, are just plain boring.

Once again, I do play and enjoy games listed above a lot of the time.

But currently I feel like I need something that is engaging and fun via methods other than the above.

Some of my favourite games that can pass this criteria:

• Skyrim - The combat is easy either way but the game is still crazy fun due to its exploration and freedom.
• Witcher 3 - Despite being a dark fantasy, it is still a weirdly relaxing and fun game due to its engaging world and characters.
• BioShock Infinite - Even with its difficulty turned down, the combat and gameplay is still super addictive and fun - on top of the phenomenal story.

TL;DR - I'm looking for an action or RPG game that can be fun without relying on difficulty, horror, or overwhelming player choice. Examples include fun exploration, good story, engaging characters, deep & addictive combat, etc.

Thanks in advance!

I'm looking for something with a lot of ambience, with good exploration - bonus if it feels very lonely, isolating or forgotten with good sound design and ambient music or sound.

Hi all I’m looking for wiki heavy games that I can play on the switch For those unfamiliar with the term it’s games that you constantly refer back to the wiki for so things like

Binding of Isaac Stardew Valley Terraria And technically Minecraft?

All those suggested above I currently own

Hi,

I am looking for a fighting game where players join factions and fight for control over a map.

I think it's similar to ESO's Cyrodill mode except being more social i.e. after a faction has control of the whole map, there is peace and social/political stuff can happen.

Is this too specific? I always wanted a dynamic game like this (with peace, war, and socialization).
